The LEZ codebase is consumed as a **sibling directory** β clone
`logos-execution-zone` next to this repository so the `../` path deps resolve:
```
parent/
βββ lez-fuzzing/ β this repo
βββ logos-execution-zone/ β LEZ codebase (path deps resolve via ../)
```
---
## π Quick Start
### 1. Prerequisites
```bash
rustup install nightly
rustup component add llvm-tools-preview --toolchain nightly
cargo install cargo-fuzz
cargo install just # optional but recommended
```
### 2. Setup
```bash
# Clone both repositories side by side
git clone logos-execution-zone
git clone lez-fuzzing
cd lez-fuzzing
```
### 3. Run the fuzz targets
```bash
# All targets for 30 s each (RISC0_DEV_MODE=1 is set automatically)
just fuzz
# Specific duration
just fuzz 120
# Single target
RISC0_DEV_MODE=1 cargo fuzz run fuzz_state_transition -- -max_total_time=120
# Corpus regression (replay saved corpus, no mutations)
just fuzz-regression
# Property-based tests only (no libFuzzer)
just fuzz-props
```
> [!IMPORTANT]
> **ZK-proof cost:** `RISC0_DEV_MODE=1` is exported at the top of the
> `Justfile` and must be set in every fuzz run to stub out ZK proof
> generation. Without it, each execution takes **seconds** instead of
> **microseconds**.

## π― Fuzz Targets
| # | Target | Protocol layer |

| 5 | `fuzz_encoding_roundtrip` | Borsh encodeβdecodeβencode round-trip identity + canonical encoding for `PublicTransaction` and `ProgramDeploymentTransaction` |
| 6 | `fuzz_signature_verification` | Signature correctness (signβverify), no-panic on random bytes, cross-key soundness |
| 7 | `fuzz_replay_prevention` | Transaction nonce replay rejection with fuzz-driven initial state |
| 8 | `fuzz_state_diff_computation` | `ValidatedStateDiff` forward containment + reverse completeness (bidirectional isolation check) |
| 9 | `fuzz_validate_execute_consistency` | `validate_on_state` / `execute_check_on_state` agreement + diff accuracy + BalanceConservation |
| 10 | `fuzz_state_serialization` | `V03State` Borsh decode no-panic + StateSerializationRoundtrip idempotency + NullifierDeduplication (`NullifierSet` hand-written impl) |
| 11 | `fuzz_witness_set_verification` | `WitnessSet::is_valid_for` no-panic + CorrectVerification (signβverify) + MessageIsolation (witness set for msg A rejected on msg B) |
| 12 | `fuzz_program_deployment_lifecycle` | `V03State::transition_from_program_deployment_transaction` no-panic + BalanceIsolation (deployment must not move tokens) + StateIsolationOnFailure |
| 13 | `fuzz_apply_state_diff_split_path` | SplitPathEquivalence: `validate_on_state + apply_state_diff` == `execute_check_on_state` for all known accounts (balance, nonce, data, program_owner); NonceIncrementCorrectness |
| 14 | `fuzz_multi_block_state_sequence` | LongRangeBalanceConservation across up to 16 blocks + FailedTxNonceStability (nonce must not change on rejection) + PerBlockReplayRejection |
| 15 | `fuzz_sequencer_vs_replayer` | Differential: sequencer path (`validate_on_state` β `apply_state_diff`) vs replayer path (`execute_check_on_state`) β SequencerReplayerEquivalence + ReplayerAcceptsAllSequencerTxs + ClockConsistency |

| 20 | `fuzz_nullifier_set_roundtrip` | `NullifierSet` Borsh serialisation: NullifierSetRoundtrip (decodeβencode identity for the hand-written impl) |
Each target lives at `fuzz/fuzz_targets/.rs`.

## 𧬠Corpus Management
```bash
# Minimise all corpora (removes dominated inputs, keeps coverage-equivalent set)
just corpus-cmin
# Minimise a single target's corpus
just corpus-cmin-target fuzz_state_transition
```
---
## π₯ Crash / Failure Workflow
```bash
# 1. Minimise a crash artifact
just fuzz-tmin fuzz_state_transition fuzz/artifacts/fuzz_state_transition/crash-abc123
# 2. Print the bytes as a Rust literal (for a regression #[test])
cargo fuzz fmt fuzz_state_transition fuzz/artifacts/fuzz_state_transition/crash-abc123
# 3. Promote the minimised input to the corpus so CI catches regressions
cp fuzz/artifacts/fuzz_state_transition/crash-abc123-minimised \
fuzz/corpus/fuzz_state_transition/regression_001
```
---
## β Adding a New Target
```bash
# Scaffold everything automatically (corpus dir, .rs file, Cargo.toml entry, CI matrix entry)
just new-target my_feature # creates fuzz_my_feature
```
`just new-target` calls [`scripts/add_fuzz_target.py`](scripts/add_fuzz_target.py), which
appends the `[[bin]]` entry to [`fuzz/Cargo.toml`](fuzz/Cargo.toml) and inserts the target
into every strategy matrix in [`.github/workflows/fuzz.yml`](.github/workflows/fuzz.yml).
---
## π§Ή Housekeeping
| Command | Removes |
|---------|---------|
| `just clean` | Cargo build artefacts (`target/` and `fuzz/target/`) |
| `just clean-artifacts` | `fuzz/artifacts/` (crash/timeout inputs) |
| `just clean-coverage` | `fuzz/coverage/` (LLVM coverage reports) |
| `just clean-all` | All of the above |
---
## βοΈ CI
GitHub Actions runs these workflows on every push/PR and nightly:
| Workflow | What it does |
|----------|--------------|
| `fuzz.yml` β `smoke-fuzz` (matrix) | Builds + runs each libFuzzer target for 60 s |
| `fuzz.yml` β `regression` (matrix) | Replays the saved corpus (`-runs=0`) |
| `fuzz.yml` β `proptest` | `cargo test -p fuzz_props --release` |
| `fuzz.yml` β `perf-baseline` (nightly only) | Measures exec/sec per target, uploads `perf_baseline.txt` |
| `fuzz-afl.yml` | AFL++ lane over the same targets/corpus |
| `mutants.yml` | Mutation testing (`cargo-mutants`) |
| `lint.yml` | Formatting + Clippy |
